Warehouse Operative Apprentice

Introduction

This is an opportunity to join Rocket Global Ventures and be part of something truly unique.

Being a valued member of the warehouse team to enable the smooth running of the warehouse on a day-to-day basis.

About the Employer

We’re a team of specialists based in the UK that crafts and delivers immersive brand experiences. We design and build award-winning exhibition stands, brand activations, events and retail spaces with sustainability and people in mind.

What You'll Do

Duties and responsibilities:

You will be based in our Grantham warehouse under the supervision of the Logistics Manager, working alongside an expanding team of Stand Builders & Joiners.

To be successful in this role you must be practically minded, driven and have a genuine interest in the smooth running of the department.

During our busier periods, the ability to work under pressure and to very tight deadlines is critical. You must be a team player, encouraging your teammates and helping the team reach the common goal.

In ‘quieter’ periods, we expect you to seek out tasks that drive value over activity.

You will have a ‘whatever it takes’ attitude, able to comfortably engage with other members of the business and use your initiative to solve problems that inevitably arise.

Example tasks include:

• Loading and unloading from our fleet of vehicles
• Picking items
• Cleaning and packing away jobs following their return
• The general cleanliness and upkeep of the warehouse as a whole

• Minimum 1-year experience in a manual based role is desirable but not essential
• Forklift truck operating licence is desirable but not essential
• You are reliable: it is important to carry out what you promised and/or was asked to complete
